Walking into Francoise's Christmas party,
I was introduced to three people
One of them,
An older fellow named Norm Fein,
Looked familiar,
But I couldn't be sure
I said as much and he agreed
But at first we couldn't pin it down
He asked if I'd been to any Sierra Club
Or other specific local singles events
And I said I hadn't
Then I asked him if
He he'd lived back East
He said he had
And we finally narrowed it down
To the astonishing fact that
He and I had both worked for AGS in New Jersey
I had met him in Piscataway
On my first assignment
But he left right away,
Transferring to Holmdel
Several months later
I transferred to Holmdel
Apparently to take his place on a project
When he retired
This was in 1981-82
And it is now December, 1995
